Bachmann's Iowa Campaign Chairman is
apparently such an out-of-control gun nut
that he even creeped out the NRA. Disclaimer:
This Appel ad fails to mention that the law
Sorenson voted for allowed bar employees,
not patrons, to pack heat.

As expected, Michele Bachmann has chosen birther/homophobe Iowa State Senator Kent Sorenson (R-Indianola) as director of her Iowa Campaign.

...a father of six and resides with his wife Shawnee in Indianola, Iowa. Before his time as a lawmaker, Senator Sorenson was a small business owner, community leader and volunteer firefighter. As a state senator, Sorenson has won wide acclaim from grassroots conservatives in Iowa for leading the charge on common-sense conservative legislation and family policy issues in the legislature.

Sorensen told Christian radio host Steve Deace he will push for impeachment proceedings against the four Iowa Supreme Court justices not recently ousted in a judicial retention vote, among whom is Brent Appel, appointed to the Iowa Supreme Court in 2006 by Tom Vilsack. Appel's term expires 12/31/2016. Appel is the husband of Sorenson's recent Iowa senate race opponent, Staci Appel. Sorenson also described a conversation he had with a Republican leader who reminded him that his constituents elected him to come to the Capitol and “burn this place down." "They want me to do battle. And I understand that,” said Sorenson.

AKSARBENT fails to see how the character of a convicted drug dealer, er, delivery boy was maligned by published reports by the Des Moines Register (for which you blog) and others based on public records.

Dragging the underage children of politicians into the political fray smells, but you and other right-wing Republicans did it anyway.

As for this post representing the worst in political blogging, AKSARBENT suggests that you wallow for a while in the bile of the Iowa Family Leader's website or the straight-up defamation of the Family Research Council's site.

Maynard (Bob "Gilligan's Island" Denver) slyly flashes a nipple to the CBS eye while trying to talk his best buddy Dobie Gillis (Dwayne Hick­man) into taking off all his clothes. Whoever said 1950s television was a vast waste­land obviously didn't know where to look.
